"Not a lot of Demons are left now," Fran said as she scouted their surroundings with her ability. "They originally had thousands, but they're now down to roughly three hundred. The Demon King must've sacrificed them to break the barrier."
The Fairy somewhat understood the Demon Lord's way of thinking.
Why must he waste his time trying to look for a fairy and a teenage boy when he could just completely destroy either the barrier or the forest?
While Vanaac did consider tearing the forest apart, he had already lost patience by then and didn't want to waste more time after spending months looking for Alex and Fran.
For this reason, he settled with what he believed was the most logical choice—destroy the barrier.
As the one who cast it, he fully understood how it worked. With enough time and resources, he confidently believed that he could break it.
